Hi sure you have heard this before so I will let you know what I have tried to so far ccleaner,app that searches for broken shortcuts,and deleting almost everything that I don't need,and the clean boot technique.I am trying to locate the fake explorer.exe but I am confused.When I go to c windows explorer and click on and brings me to a libary page,music photos etc.I did find explorer .mui and an explorer.exe that has download program for its icon but it also does the same thing.When I search for explorer.exe inside c windows numerous explorer files from winsxs/wow64 come up but they all bring me to the same default library page.I am really clueless right now please help.
